The 10 Best Bulova Watches For Men

The extremely active — or those who just like to keep track of everything — will love the 98B212 Analog, as it has four subdials and a unidirectional rotating bezel. All that information on the face makes it difficult to quickly glance down and get the time, though.

If you're looking to make your first foray into the luxury watch world, the 98B247 Accutron II is a good starting point. It's relatively simple and understated while still being classy, and the steel-mesh bracelet and mineral dial window can handle lots of abuse.

The 98A128 Self-Winding Mechanical is on the higher end of the price scale for the brand, but you get plenty of sparkle for your money, thanks to the crystal gems that line the case and band. However, you might not want to pay this much for fake jewels.

The man who likes simple, understated design should consider the 96C105 Black. The band is shiny stainless steel, and just about everything else is black — pure, inky black. This helps the subdials and hour markers pop, and no one will ever accuse you of being colorful.

Anyone who likes to see how sausages ar made — or in this case, how time is kept — will enjoy the 43mm Classic Automatic, as the skeleton dial and exhibition case back leave the watch's inner workings in full view. That makes the face a little busy and distracting, though.

Minimalism is the name of the game for the 96B158 Precisionist, so those who prefer understated design will appreciate how it sets itself apart in a world of baubles and bling. The leather strap isn't flashy, just functional, doing its job without drawing attention.

If you want a timepiece that really stands out, the 98D111 Black Dial looks more like a bracelet than a traditional watch. It has eight diamonds on the face, which definitely help to offset the faceted dauphine hands — just shield your eyes before checking the time.

You can let the world know that you ride when you wear the Harley-Davidson 78A109. There's a winged skull on the face, giving it a rough and tumble feel, while the black-and-chrome accents won't be out of place in any biker bar you're liable to find yourself in.

As the name suggests, the Precisionist Two-Tone is one of the most precise models you'll find anywhere, capable of accuracy to 1/1,000th of a second. It uses a high-vibrational frequency to keep it exact, so you'll have no excuse for strolling in late to that meeting.

The rose gold on the Marine Star is capable of drawing attention without being flashy, and helps it to stand out in a sea of yellow gold and chrome. The rubber band is noteworthy as well, making it as suitable to wear on a surfboard as it is in a boardroom.
